… and, so it begins

Long hiatus’ from blogging often leave me speechless. I get so busy with life and “stuff” that I never get a chance to sit down and “talk”….. then, it’s as if I have nothing to talk about.

But…..
A few things have been on my mind – one thought leads to another and here we are in their very much watered down versions.

The end of the year always brings us to a place where we reflect upon what’s happened, what we liked, what we didn’t like, and what we want to change.

At the end of last year, I began working out and continued to do so throughout this year. Very proud becauseI was not one that was very fond of the gym. It’s now become a part of my life… I enjoy it and definitely see how regular visits promote a healthy mental state as well as physical state. Now, that I’ve got that under my belt; this year, I really want to work on my eating habits. Although, we eat pretty healthy, we do a lot of eating out. Truthfully, that’s all we do. Yes, everyday, every meal. I’ve really had to (random) urge to cook lately so I’m hoping that over the next few weeks I’ll really get into the kitchen and start preparing healthier meals. That is resolution #1.

New Year’s Resolution #2:
Focus more on relationships.
We, as normal people, tend to be so focused and driven by what we see – the things we want, the things we don’t have, the future, etc. THINGS. Things that have no eternal value, at all. So, this year… starting NOW…. I want to be much more intentional about spending time and building/solidifying relationships with people who are important to me.

Here’s to resolving to make life changes in an effort to be a much better steward over what I’ve been given!

Ooooooh….. and, I’ll be turning 30 in exactly 43 days. I want to do a 30 in 30 type challenge but I’m kinda at a loss!! Any suggestions would be GREAT!!!!
